Timer 1, how to make a reliable Real Time Clock in 8-bit PIC
Measuring seconds comes really handy in many circuits. Executing tasks with demanding precision, such as a real time clock, requires an external oscillator (often called 'crystal') of 32,768Hz. Such procedure…
Timer 0, a simple Counter in 8-bit PIC you need to know
Instead of creating software to count seconds or pulses, a specific hardware was created to deal with this necessity called 'timers'. There is a bunch of different kinds of timers…
Setting up PWM on a PIC Microcontroller
About PWM. Hello everyone, Juditova here! The Pulse Modulation Width (PWM) helps any microcontroller tremendously on most control tasks. You see, PWM makes the connected device to believe its connected…
